Double PB weekend
Sat: New 5k run PB at Parkrun (23:32)
Sun: New 5k row RB at FoolsFestSprints virtual race (19:11)
Doing them back to back prob suggests I should have room for more in both too.

I know that 2k on erg is easier but probably I will not row on water in any near future because I don’t have any near school .
But I like the rowerg to cross train for xc skiing, I’m gaining good power (also train legs).

New PB on the skierg - 5k in 22:58.
Not a brilliant time on the ranking board, but progress.
Used a higher rating, which seemed to help eliminate excessive leaning.

Well done. Brilliant is subjective, and also, hopefully, a moving target that will improved on again and again. Don't disparage what you've done by comparing yourself to others, as your best is always strong enough.DghSpanishWelsh wrote: ↑October 16th, 2024, 10:32 amNew PB on the skierg - 5k in 22:58.

Skierg can be a beast of a machine and very different workout to the rowerg imo.

Re: New Personal Best! Brag About That New Pb!
Another PB today: 5K in 21:57.7.
28 seconds off the last one, I believe.
Keeping the stroke rate higher (38 per minute - not as high as some advise, but just can't move that quickly) and feeling the benefit of interval training.
